Bromazine, sold under the brand names Ambodryl, Ambrodil, and Deserol among others, also known as bromodiphenhydramine, is an antihistamine and anticholinergic medication of the ethanolamine class.[1][2][3][4][5] It is an analogue of diphenhydramine with a bromine substitution on one of the phenyl rings.[1][2]

Synthesis

Synthesis:[6] Patent:[7]

Grignard reaction between phenylmagnesium bromide and para-bromobenzaldehyde (1) gives p-bromobenzhydrol (2). Halogenation with acetyl bromide in benzene solvent gives p-bromo-benzhydrylbromide (3). Finally, etherification with deanol completed the synthesis of Bromazine (4).

Side effects

Continuous and/or cumulative use of anticholinergic medications, including first-generation antihistamines, is associated with higher risk for cognitive decline and dementia in elderly people.[8][9]
